Ingredients
Here is a quick rundown of what you’ll need to make these sunbutter banana wraps. For the ingredient measurements, please see the recipe card below. For allergy substitutions, see the next section below to customize it for your dietary needs.
- Banana: I tend to use one banana per wrap. Choose bananas that are not green and have a few freckles on them. Those will be the most ripe.
- Sun Butter: You can use any type of nut or seed butter that you like. I just really enjoy the taste and texture of sun butter. See below for other ideas.
- Wrap: Use a wrap of your choice. Here, I’m using plain tortilla wraps I had leftover from taco night. See below for different allergy options.
- Granola: I love adding granola for a crunch!
- Chocolate Chips: This is an optional ingredient, but I love adding some mini chocolate chips for the sweetness, plus, banana and chocolate is a classic combination!
- Maple Syrup: Another optional ingredient. It seems weird, but adding a tiny drizzle of maple syrup adds the richness and depth of flavor. Try it out and see if you like it!
Allergy Substitutions
If you are avoiding wheat/gluten, make sure that you use a good gluten free wrap. My favorites are from Mission Gluten Free Tortillas. There are also Siete Food brands wraps that come in Chickpea, Cassava, or Almond flour that are all gluten free!
If you are allergic to sunflowers, you can use any kind of nut or seed butter to make these wraps! Cashew butter, almond butter, soy nut butter, pumpkin seed butter, and more are all basically the same thing in the recipe. Use what is safe for you!
Variations
- Transform this into dessert! Add a drizzle of chocolate sauce and pop on a scoop of (dairy free) ice cream!
- Add some jelly with the sunbutter for a sun butter and jelly sandwich.
- Add more nuts/seeds if you can safely enjoy them.
- Try it with additional fruits. Adding raspberries, apple slices, or blueberries are all yummy additions.
- Try it toasted! After wrapping this together, pop it in a non-stick skillet for a few minutes on each side to get it all warm and toasty.
Instructions
For the full instructions, complete with recipe measurements, please see the recipe card below.
Start with your wrap and make a slice in the wrap to make it easier to wrap up.
Next, spread sun butter all over the four quadrants of the wrap. Don’t skimp on the sunbutter! Then, cover two of the quadrants in banana slices, one in granola, and one in mini chocolate chips (or more fruit or bananas).
Now it’s time to fold it up! And you are done. It really is that easy to make.
Tips and Tricks
- Buy large wraps. The bigger the wrap, the easier they are to wrap and roll up!
- When packing these for lunch, you can freeze them overnight so by the time lunch rolls around, they are nice and fresh but thawed.
How to Store
Fresh: This is the best way to enjoy these wraps! Make them and enjoy them.
Fridge: For meal prep for the day, make these in the morning and enjoy them at lunch time. Store them in an airtight container to keep them fresh.
Freezer: These can be frozen overnight and placed in lunchboxes to thaw by lunchtime.
